Levoit Classic 160 Ultrasonic Cool Mist Humidifier

A: We recommend using distilled water for best results. As another alternative, purified or filtered water will be slightly better than tap water. However, if using tap water, please be mindful that the unit may need to be cleaned more often due to mineral buildup.

A: The Classic 160 does not have an LED light.

A: For your convenience, we have listed the deep cleaning / descaling / disinfecting process below: 1. Fill the tank with 3 US cups / 710 mL of distilled white vinegar or alternative cleaning solution. 2. Replace the tank cover and swish the solution around the tank. 3. Place the tank on the base and soak for 15–20 minutes. The solution will drain into the base chamber and loosen scale (mineral buildup) in the tank and in the base chamber (including the transducer and float).  4. Carefully dump the solution from the tank and base, ensuring liquid does not flow into the air outlet. 5. If needed, use a soft cloth, the included cleaning brush, or a dish brush to remove scale from all parts 6. Thoroughly rinse all components of the humidifier (carefully avoiding the air outlet and power cord). 7. Pat base and tank dry, and allow to air dry for a day or two. You can also remove the bottom noise silencer; simply press the release tabs and gently pull away from the humidifier. Then you can clean the mist tube and bottom tank more conveniently for the Classic 160.

A: We do not recommend adding essential oils to the Classic 160 as this may damage the unit.

A: The installed water filter sponge is optional and helps catch minerals from hard water. Please note that as substances in the water oxidize, it is normal to observe some discoloration.  The filter can last up to a month, depending on the quality of the water and the frequency of use. You can soak the filter in distilled white vinegar and then rinse it under warm water to clean it, or you can opt to leave it out altogether.
